Alrighty then.

I don't read romance very often - in fact, I couldn't name the last romance book I read - but Hoang has delivered a sweet, readable romance with enough cute and steamy bits to bolster me through some dark, literary reads. I'm grateful that all my favourite reviewers gave [b:The Kiss Quotient|36199084|The Kiss Quotient (The Kiss Quotient, #1)|Helen Hoang|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1527983633s/36199084.jpg|57828311] high enough ratings for me to check this out. Yeah, 4 1/2 lusty stars from me.

I was recommended this book after a heavy and dramatic read. She said it was funny, light, and hot. And she was so right... I was obsessed with this book! It had everything I want in a book: hot hero, steamy scenes, a flawed but perfect heroine. So many funny parts to this book that were laugh-out-loud.
I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Stella, a high functioning econometrician, serves as the protagonist. Her quest is to find a date to a charity benefit. The issue is that her experience with sex and dating has been awful in the past. So she turns to a male escort to educate her on the subject.

This rom-com of a story was delightful in having a female person who lives with autism at its core and a Vietnamese-Swedish love interest. I like how it challenged gender stereotypes and demonstrated the value of looking at someone for who they were and not how their family or labels might describe them.

Stella Lane is a successfull and brilliant econometrician, her job is to come up with algorithms to predict costumers purchase and she loves her job. She has Asperger's and more money than she can spend. She is not seeing anyone, to her mother's eternal dismay and finds it impossible to connect even sexually with someone. Her brilliant mind concludes that she needs practice and who is best for the job, than a professional?
There comes Michael, the escort she hires, after long consideration. They form a partnership, with their main goal to help help her check off all the boxes on the lesson plan she has put together.
Soon though their partnership and the lines they shouldn't cross become blur.

"I like you better than calculus and math is the only that unites the universe."

Warning: Graphic sexual content

This books has it all:
-instantly steamy and hot
-emotional and heartwarming
-jealous ex-clients
-romance
-strong female character
-Michael

What else can you ask for? It was such a fun read and to think it was a debut novel!
emotional informative fast-paced

AHAHAHHAAAHAHAHAHA
Mori de amor, Stella y Michael son tan buenos el uno con el otro.
Me gusto como Michael ayudaba a que Stella se sintiera más cómoda en su piel y le enseñara sobre esos temas que ella pensaba que no era buena. Stella jamás jusgo a Michael por lo que se dedicaba, además de apreciarlo a él como persona, valoraba lo que el tenía para ofrecer, las cosas que le gustaban como el diseño de moda y ayudo a la familia de el.
